The main functionalities developed in 2009 for the MECHE software are:
The main functionalities developed in 2009 for the MECHE software are:
- The development of two rods models (added to Super-Helix rod model), namely the implicit mass-spring model [33] and the CORDE model [41]
- The development of a bunch of methods for solving the incremental problem for frictious contact, including several variants of [35] , as well as the new algorithm described in [34] .
- The integration of several frictious contact algorithms (partly taken from the Siconos platform, and partly developed for that purpose) into the available rods models
- The development of collision detection schemes in-between rods and between rods and external objects (dynamic planes, spheres and meshes)
- The improvement of time performance through code optimization
- The handling of import files (mesh + motion) and export files (for rendering in 3DS Max) in collaboration with L. Boissieux (SED)
